"Mood is one of the cohesive elements in Nikki Basch Davis's work. Her subject matter is diverse, from figurative to Plein Air, both done expertly with attention to composition, color and value. These skills converge to create a subtle invitation to engage and interact with the painting. Sometimes the invitation is as quiet as a posture or the suggestion of an expression or a gesture and sometimes it is the paradoxical harmonies of light, color and value that welcome the viewer to pause and enter the work. The painting is not insistent or demanding yet it reveals a deep commitment to the emotional qualities of her experience."
